The speech was followed by the warm greetings from Ms. Pan Ming, President of SGIA. Ms. Pan gave a brief introduction about SGIA, the current development and trends of the fashion industry in Shenzhen and in the whole China. After that, Mr. Raphael Paul Cooper, Board Member of the CICC in South China, shared updated data on the Italian and Chinese fashion industry and key figures of the CICC presence in South China.

 

 

 

 

Focusing on three key factors like creativity, innovation and brand change, the speakers shared their experience and business case, taking into consideration the rapid development of the fashion industry and how the COVID-19 pandemic aftermaths are posing challenges and opportunities to transform the mindset and bring up self-transcendence.
